Chapter 85: 400m Semifinals (3)

Angelo. Taylor looked a little upset, as if he was discussing something with Brown, and in the end the two broke up. Apparently he thinks it's stupid for his opponent to run unreservedly at the last minute when he has already qualified for the semi-finals.

However, he also doesn't want to give up the first place in the group to his opponent, and the results of the semi-finals are directly related to the number of passes in the final, which is also a very important thing, so he has to suppress this Brown's sharpness in whatever he says.

"That is, he is definitely a little worse than the three American players, if he is replaced by Merritt, Chris. Brown probably won't fight, you see that the two of them are still a little bickering. Director Jiang looked up at the electronic screen and was still talking to Wang Qiao.

Wang Qiao's eyes were also staring at the electronic screen, probably because he was very anxious, he didn't have the heart to gossip about other things with Jiang Gui, and waited for the results to come out.

Lu Wei put his hands on his thighs, and it took a few minutes to even out his breath. Behind him was the Australian player John Brown. Stephen simply lay on the ground at this time.

Falling short at the last moments, coupled with the fact that he lay on the ground without a cushion at the end of the game, it is believed that he is now suffering physically and mentally.

The results of Group 1 are displayed on the big screen:

Angelo. Taylor: 44.45 seconds;

Chris. Brown: 44.5 seconds;

Lu Wei: 44.71 seconds;

John. Steve: 44.89 seconds;

……………….

Lu Wei broke the national record again, improving every match, and in the semi-finals he defeated his group's biggest rival, Australia's John Brown. Stephen.

Even if he played his best, Lu Wei only got half a place on the way to the finals.

Whether you can advance to the finals depends on the results of the other groups in the next year, the current 400-meter field is indeed cruelly competitive, and there is no room for young players to grow at all. ”

"It's rare to make progress again, but for the 400m final, the speed at which he is improving now is not guaranteed to enter the final, and whether he can advance depends on this kid's creation......."

Wang Qiao's mood is very complicated now, on the one hand, he is sincerely happy for Lu Wei's perverted progress, but even so, there is no guarantee that Lu Wei will run into the top 8.

The second group then began, featuring Team USA's No. 2 player Rasean. Merritt, Canada's Taylor. Christopher, as well as Sweden's Johann Brown. Weisman.

These 3 players are the strongest in the group, and the group promotion places will basically be generated on them.

"If it's just these players, I think there is still a fight, they have been average recently, except for Merritt, the other two preliminaries are around 45 seconds, there is still a head." Director Jiang patted Wang Qiao's shoulder, looking quite relaxed.

Wang Qiao smiled, leaned his shoulders on the back of the seat, it's useless to be anxious now, at this time, it depends on whether fate will annoy you......

Merritt in lane 6 was like a hanger, starting at full speed and overtaking the team in lane 7 before finishing the first straight.

"I'll go, this is the semi-finals, this guy is so arrogant!" Dad Lu was a little surprised, although there is no such thing as Michael in the 400m event. Johnson's calibre, but there is no shortage of high-level athletes.

In addition to the three U.S. team members who have the ability to run under 44 seconds, Chris . Brown can also run around 44, and there are many team members who can run around 44.5 seconds. For so many years, this project has been competing at a high level.

Probably because Merritt fired with all his might, bringing the rhythm with the rest of the group that was noticeably more open than the first group.

Heading into the final straight, Merritt ran alone in front, with the Swedes and Canadians thrown three metres away, leaving the rest of the team at a distance of not a small distance.

The situation in this group is clear, Merritt is first in the group, there are two remaining two people fighting for a direct qualification spot, and the other is going to compete with the third place in the other group.

Merritt had a clear advantage, slowing down in the last 10 meters or so, and crossed the finish line first, finishing in 44.31 seconds. Swede Johan. Weisman finished second in the group in 44.46 seconds, and Canadian Taylor. Christopher finished third in the group with a time of 44.47 seconds, a difference of 44.47 seconds.

The rest of the group were all outside 45 seconds.

"Heck, the results of this group were carried by Merritt too quickly, and even the third place result was very good, Taylor. Christopher will certainly qualify for a group qualification, which would be horrible if he didn't make it to the final. If nothing else, the final spot will be between the third place in Group 3 and Lu Wei. ”

"Alas, life hangs by a thread! Our Lu Wei is unlucky, the opponents in this competition are so strong, whether it works or not depends on this last one. "Dad Lu can't care about drinking tea at this time.

"What kind of life hangs by a thread, it's so mysterious, it's like Lu Wei going to war!" Lu's mother didn't like Lu's father to say that a sports competition was so exaggerated.

At this time, everyone felt that time was passing very slowly, and after the results of the second group came out, the broadcast camera cut into the field competition, and the discus race has been compared from less than 7 o'clock to now.

"Everyone is waiting to see the 400-meter race, what does it mean for him to throw a discus!" Yin Na is also anxious in front of the TV, she knows a little about sports, coupled with the commentary's analysis of the situation, she also hopes that Lu Wei can reach the semifinals.

A few minutes later, the camera returned to the 400m and the final group of the semi-finals finally began.

The advantage of Varina in this group can be described as exaggerated, as he established the victory with 150 metres remaining. The other members of this group have no intention of stumbling, facing the first person in the 400 meters now, they have almost no desire to stumble, anyway, it is not the final, just let him run alone.

Almost 20 meters from the finish line, Varina was already slowing down.

"This super-first-class player is willful, is this going to the end!?" Shen Liang was also so shocked that he stood up, this was also the first time he had participated in such a large-scale race, and it was the first time he had seen it if he dared to slow down so far from the finish line.

After Varina slipped to the finish line, the Frenchman Leslie. Dezhen then crossed the finish line, with another Bahamian team member trailing Dezhen and finishing in third place.

"I think Lu Wei has been promoted, Director Jiang!" Wang Qiao's face finally showed a long-lost smile, although Varina is also very fast, but he can completely retract and release freely, run tight in the future, and walk freely in the back.

Dezhen's results should be faster than Lu Wei, and the third Bahamian player in the group may be a little weaker.

"I also think it's okay, it looks like we're going to catch the last train!" Director Jiang still has a smile on his face, in the track and field field, he has reached the realm of no doubt in his heart, and life is the same.

"Congratulations to Lu Wei, congratulations to the Huaxia track and field team, the Bahamian team member Musah in the third group has a time of 44.86 seconds, so Lu Wei will advance to the final with the second best result outside the direct promotion quota!"

In the stands, Coach Jiang and Wang Qiao came to hug, it was not easy to have this result, and Huaxia opened the door to the final of a sprint event.

In the stands, Feng Yong and the coaches around him burst into laughter.

The result of Lu Wei's entry into the 400m final will undoubtedly boost the spirit of the Chinese track and field team and even all the Chinese people, and this event finally has a place for the Chinese people.
